When Cai first burst onto the entertainment scene, she was widely acknowledged as "Singapore’s only professional female magician" by publications including The Straits Times, Lianhe Zaobao, The New Paper, My Paper, Mediacorp Channel 8 News and Lianhe Wanbao. Cai dislikes being typecast as the typical female in magic who plays submissive roles to males and only performs magic with silks, flowers, umbrellas or rabbits and has incorporated fire-eating, choreography with samurai swords, twirling fire balls, spikes and weapons in her shows. Her influences in magic when she was growing up include David Copperfield and Princess Tenko. Over the years, she has grown from performing simple magic tricks to more elaborate and death defying ones.

Cai collaborated with her former manager, J C Sum, in various illusion shows across Asia. Channel News Asia has highlighted that they represent "the new faces of an age-old art form", and called them "Singapore’s celebrity magic duo". They have been hailed as "Asia’s most famous illusionists" by Straits Times and have been lauded as "the hottest duo in town" by AsiaOne.

Prior to her announcement, she and her best friend Pamela Ho co-authored the bestselling nonfiction travelogue Adventures of 2 Girls, a compilation of experiences which ‘traces the journey of two best friends who take a 9-month break from their successful careers to tick a big, fat item off their bucket list: to travel the world and write a book’. It was published by Marshall Cavendish in September 2012 and it debuted on The Straits Times Bestsellers List at #8 on October 2012.

Following Adventures of 2 girls, Cai wrote a bestselling autobiography titled Who is Magic Babe Ning detailing her early years and ‘reveals how the shy teenage girl transformed herself into magic’s wild child and became a 2-time FHM cover girl, embraced by international media and respected by professional peers worldwide’.
